Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Turquoise bracelets were relatively rare in China in the 80s.

Turquoise, the mineral scientific name is Turquoise.

Not because it comes from Turkey, but in ancient times Turkey was called Persia and they were rich in turquoise.

Later, it was handed over to the emperor of China as a tribute, hence its name.

Turquoise is used as a cultural toy bracelet. In addition to turquoise, most of them also use some wooden beads.

The more common ones are small-leaf rosewood, huanghuali, golden nanmu, etc.

The identification of turquoise bracelets is similar to the identification of antiques.

Because a fine turquoise bracelet is made of old wood.

Lin Ran didn't need to use the secret skills of treasure appraisal at all. He could identify it in three simple steps.

At this time, Qin Zhongxing looked at Lin Ran's calm look and was a little confused, so he asked: "Lin Ran, what do you think of this bracelet?"

"BoC, please don't interrupt Mr. Lin when he's doing the appraisal." Mr. Qin said.

"Yes..." Qin Zhongxing looked at Lin Ran doubtfully.

Although he is an amateur, the turquoise bracelet in front of him does look like the same thing.

But he was a little afraid that a kid of Lin Ran's age would insist that it was a fake if he got caught in the second grade.

By then, not only Grandpa will be embarrassed, but Boss Luo, who gave the gift, may also find it difficult to step down.

Based on his status alone, Qin Zhongxing felt that he would not send fake goods.

The inquiry just now appeared to be a consultation, but in fact it was a secret urging Lin Ran to make an appraisal quickly.

Lin Ran continued to look at the beads, with a faint smile on his lips.

"The identification of turquoise bracelets is actually very simple. You can tell them by looking and touching them."

After hearing this, Wang Shuai sneered and said, "You're pretending to be pretty decent."

The people watching were also whispering to each other.

Except for those who knew Lin Ran's strength, everyone else thought he was making a fool of himself.

There is no better way to identify the bracelet, just look, smell and touch it. Lin Ran just said nonsense.

Turquoise bracelets are still relatively rare in China in this era.

On the one hand, the quantity of fine turquoise is scarce, and it was relatively common in China a few years ago.

However, due to its foreign name and the declining value of resale, the number of collectors and wearers is getting smaller and smaller.

However, high-quality turquoise material is still very rare.

The price of good-quality turquoise has also increased, and it has become an exclusive plaything for wealthy people.

This turquoise bracelet has very large turquoise beads. If it is a good quality turquoise, the price is not ordinary.

Lin Ran smiled and said: "This bracelet is indeed in good condition, but it is not real turquoise."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed.

The expression on Qin Zhongxing's face changed immediately. He was full of affection for Lin Ran just now, but now he felt that he didn't know how to speak according to the situation.

Most people are just watching the fun, and he can just say a few nice words to fool him. If he insists on being serious, many people will be unable to get off the stage.

Qin Zhongxing whispered: "Mr. Lin, would you like to take a closer look?"

Lin Ran shook his head and explained: "I have looked carefully and it is indeed not turquoise."

He did not give Qin Zhongxing any face, which made him unable to step down.

Who knows, Lin Ran continued: "Boss Luo, this is not turquoise at all, it is probably the more expensive agarwood, right?"

"As we all know, turquoise is dark blue, but these beads are dark brown in color."

"Only agarwood can show this color. The higher the quality of agarwood, the darker the color. This bracelet..."

"Boss Luo, I'm afraid the market price is no less than 2000 yuan, right?"

After Lin Ran finished speaking, Boss Luo immediately stood up, clapped his hands and said, "As expected of Mr. Lin, you can see this."

Qin Zhongxing originally thought that Boss Luo would be unhappy, but seeing him stand up and applaud, he found it very helpful.Obviously Lin Ran was right.

He cast a doubtful look at his grandfather.

"Is this an agarwood bracelet?" Mr. Qin was also a little surprised.

Lin Ran smiled and handed the box and bracelet to Mr. Qin, "Boss Luo is serious about it. Now is not the peak season for the production of fine agarwood. It can be seen that Boss Luo deliberately went to foreign countries to purchase it."

Mr. Qin played with the bracelet in surprise.

He hadn't noticed it just now, but after Lin Ran reminded him, he realized that it was the real thing!

"Boss Luo, this is really expensive."

"Haha, how can you give me a cheap gift for Mr. Qin's sixtieth birthday!" Boss Luo stood up and cupped his hands and said, "This is indeed a turquoise and agarwood bracelet, but the price is not as expensive as Brother Lin said. It’s only a dollar for a thousand handfuls. As long as you like it, Mr. Qin.”

Mr. Qin doesn't usually play with bracelets, so he doesn't know much about the materials of bracelets.

But he also did some research. After Lin Ran's reminder, he noticed the price of this bracelet and his face was full of smiles.

"Thank you Boss Luo for this great gift!"

"That's right. However, I think you should be more grateful to Mr. Lin. It turns out that a hero comes from a boy. I can't hide this from you."

Lin Ran sighed and shook his head at Boss Luo.

A guy like you who is in the limelight should speak out for himself and pretend to be in the spotlight.

"This is my appraisal result, Mr. Qin, congratulations."

Wang Shuai was stunned.

I originally thought that Boss Luo was on his side, and seeing Lin Ran make a fool of himself was a sure thing.

Unexpectedly, Boss Luo was just looking for an opportunity for Lin Ran to show off.

Seeing Mr. Qin and Qin Zhongxing's happy expressions, they were very satisfied with the performance of Boss Luo and Lin Ran.

How could Wang Shuai give in? He asked, "Lin Ran, are you colluding with Boss Luo?"

Boss Luo was at a happy moment, and when he heard these words, his expression suddenly dropped.

"Who are you?"

He looked at Wang Shuai expressionlessly.

Unlike other businessmen who value elegance, Boss Luo is an extremely pragmatic person.

He doesn't think publishing a book is a big deal, only making money is the way to go.

Wang Shuai did not dare to offend Boss Luo, so he stuck out his tongue and said: "Boss Luo, I am not targeting you..."

"Is that targeting Mr. Lin?" Boss Luo had no intention of letting this kid go, and actually dared to question him face to face.

At this time, even the kind-hearted Zheng Xueming did not speak.

Tang Lanxuan also looked at them with a smile as if he was just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.

Wang Shuai was speechless by Boss Luo. He hesitated and wanted to explain, but found that he could not get off the stage.

"Say less." Chen Shuming tugged at Wang Shuai's clothes. This man didn't know what was going on. He seemed to have eaten gunpowder today.

"I think Lin Ran is just telling lies!" Wang Shuai said his thoughts cruelly.

There was an uproar in the venue.
